Abstract
Design improvements for the International Atomic Energy Agency's Spent Fuel Attribute Tester, recommended on the basis of an optimization study, were incorporated into a new instrument fabricated under the Finnish Support Programme. The new instrument was tested at a spent fuel storage pool on September 8 and 9,1993. The results of two of the measurements have been compared with calculations. In both cases the calculated and measured pulse height spectra are in good agreement and the 137Cs gamma peak signature from the target spent fuel element is present.
